# Embedded Grafana & InfluxDB integration support

> We added support for embedded Grafana and InfluxDB integration

Source: https://last9.io/changelog/embedded-grafana-influxdb-integration-support/

This release of Last9 is all about close collaboration with other Observability tools and workflows you already use in day-to-day work. We bring support for Embedded Grafana within the Last9 Dashboard and first-class support for InfluxDB integration with Last9. Let’s dive in.

## 📉 Embedded Grafana

A brand new `Explore` the tab is added in Last9, where you will find — guess what — an embedded Grafana Dashboard where you can create Dashboards on top of your Last9 Clusters.

### 👷🏻‍♀️What’s possible and what’s not?

- Explore your metrics with built-in grafana
- Works out of the box with your Last9 clusters
- Create observability dashboards and panels using PromQL
- Alerting and [SLO](https://last9.io/blog/a-practical-guide-to-implementing-slos/)s on top of grafana dashboards are coming soon

## 🐯 InfluxDB \<> Last9

Integration support for getting data from InfluxDB into Last9 using a push-based approach via `vmagent`. Forget the hassle of pull-based models.

The flow is as follows:

<Figure
  src={
    Image4
  }
  alt={"InfluxDB -> Last9"}
  width={"2000"}
  height={"205"}
  caption={"InfluxDB -> Last9"}
/>

Detailed integration documentation, alternatives, and working code samples are below.

This approach supports dual writes in case someone wants to write to Prometheus and InfluxDB.

P.S. We have a [community Discord](https://discord.com/invite/Q3p2EEucx9) to discuss all things about SREs. Do hop in if interested!
